Silent XT

Please note: Since the pet uses the same sound files as the real XT002 Deconstructor, this will silence the real one as well. There's no way around that without LUA codeing that I am not capable of (yet).

CATACLYSM NOTE: These sound mods work with the Cataclysm Beta as of Wow version 4.01 (12857)(Test) Aug 27, 2010

Unlike other sound mods that use a corrupt .wav file accomplish the feat, this uses properly formatted silent .wav files.

Good to see someone making good use of Audio X II. I help out with providing paths for that guys sound lib

Someone else must remove the cats. All have iPods." (http://community.livejournal.com/tec...t/2018070.html)

I would think that you could register the CHAT_MSG_MONSTER_YELL event with an addon, do a string compare against what the known quotes are, and then play the appropriate sound file.
The addon doing this would have to include the sound files, since you've overridden the originals in the .\Data\Sound\Creature\ directory.

Originally posted by Darkkhelmet I hope this addon works but I'm a bit confused. the folder tree below the data folder does not exist. Does the entire tree from ...\sounds down need to be created?

Dark,
Yes, if you've not installed any sound mods in the past the tree will need to be created. I've got a couple of add-ons available to silence some of the more annoying sound FX in the game and several other people have posted yet still more. A few of the older ones will try and create the tree when unzipped, but with at least 4 different standard paths at this point (WinXP, Win7, Mac, Linux), I don't include the paths in my zip files.

Thanks for the speedy response. I installed the app and love it. No more XT, heaven. Now if something could be done to silence the train set and force the developer who thought of and created both these vile things to listen to them for, say, 24 hours at a healthy volume...
